SECTION  I 

OATA  BANK  DESCRIPTION 


1.0  INTRODUCTION 


1.1  LRAPP  MISSION  AND  OBJECTIVES 

The  Long  Range  Acoustic  Propagation  Project  (LRAPP)  was  established  within 
the  Office  of  Naval  Research  in  1966  to  provide  environmental  acoustic  sup- 
port for  Navy  programs.  The  Project  supports  a balanced  program  of  acous- 
tic parameter  Investigations,  at-sea  data  collection,  and  model  development 
and  evaluation. 

Since  1967,  LRAPP  has  sponsored  more  than  30  individual  environmental  acous- 
tic exercises  In  various  ocean  areas  of  the  world.  During  these  exercises, 
extensive  measurements  have  been  made  of  oceanographic  and  acoustic  parameters 
over  wide  geographic  areas.  LRAPP  sponsored  exercises  have  Involved  partici- 
pation of  the  Navy  Research  Laboratories,  universities,  private  Institutions, 
and  commercial  contractors.  Measurements  have  been  made  using  ships,  air- 
craft, and  moored  stable  platforms.  Post-exercise  processing  and  analysis 
of  collected  data  have  resulted  in  an  extensive  inventory  of  digitized  data 
which  are  used  by  LRAPP  In  supporting  parametric  acoustic  analyses.  In  the 
evaluation  of  acoustic  models,  and  as  a basis  for  planning  future  measurement 
programs. 


1.2  SCOPE  OF  LRAPP  DATA  BANK 


The  LRAPP  Data  Bank  is  designed  to  preserve  the  massive  amounts  of  both  envi- 
ronmental and  acoustic  data  collected  during  LRAPP  sponsored  exercises,  as 
well  as  to  maintain,  in  a readily  accessible  manner,  high  quality  historic 
and  climatologic  data  in  those  ocean  areas  of  interest  to  LRAPP. 


LRAPP's  data  banking  efforts  began  in  1973  with  the  CMURCN  GA8BR0  Exercise 
in  the  Caribbean.  Since  that  time,  all  LRAPP  data  which  have  been  collected, 
processed,  and  edited  have  routinely  been  forwarded  to  the  Data  Bank,  During 
this  period,  LRAPP  has  also  sponsored  the  compilation  of  high  quality  envi- 
ronmental data  sets  (edited  data  from  NOOC  ard  NAVQCEANO  data  sets)  for 
selected  ocean  areas. 

The  LRAPP  Data  Bank,  which  Is  made  up  of  1)  me  Data  3ases,  and  2)  the  Data 
Management  Software,  Is  currently  operation®  i>  C 1108  hardware  at 
the  NSTL,  Bay  St.  Louis,  Mississippi. 


1.2.1  Data  Bases 


The  environmental  and  acoustic  data  witnin  the  Bank  are  structured  in 
Regional  Data  Bases  where  all  banked  data  within  the  particular  geographic 
area  will  be  found,  regardless  of  source.  At  present,  only  a limited 


1-1 


number  of  regional  Oata  Bases  exist  in  the  Bank.  Schedules  for  addition  of 
Oata  Bases  are  based  on  geographic  priorities  of  LRAPP  measurement  and  analy- 
sis programs.  Figure  1-1  delineates  Data  Base  Region  boundaries  and  indi- 
cates presently  available  Data  Bases.  Exceptions  to  the  regional  organization 
of  data  are  made  for  special  data  sets  (e.g.,  World  Shipping  Data  Base)  only 
where  regional  segmentation  Is  not  appropriate.  More  detailed  Information 
as  to  the  scope  and  content  of  available  Data  Bases  is  provided  In  LRAPP 
report  C79-Q30,  "LRAPP  Environmental-Acoustic  Oata  Bank  Users  Manual  (U)," 
CONFIDENTIAL. 


1.2.2  Data  Management  Software 

A distinctive  feature  of  the  LRAPP  Data  Bank  Is  its  ability  to  retrieve  and 
format  data  with  minimal  user  specified  format  control.  Retrieved  data  can 
then  be  analyzed  with  the  system's  supplied  analytical  modules,  again  elimi- 
nating the  user's  need  to  specify  data  format.  The  storage  and  retrieval 
module,  CREATA8ASE,  enables  Isolation  and  retrieval  of  any  data  subset  with- 
out programming  assistance  and  also  provides  the  flexibility  to  expand, 
modify,  and  restructure  existing  data  files. 

Additional  software  (CREATE  module)  Is  provided  to  interface  user  supplied 
Subroutines  with  subset  data  files  and  to  enable  the  user  to  choose  from  a 
variety  of  output  forms  (PRINTER-PLOTTER  for  character  matrix  display  at  a 
terminal  or  EGO  for  display  outputs  via  graphical  plotter). 

An  overview  of  presently  available  software  capabilities  is  provided  in  LRAPP 
report  C79-030;  \RAPP  Environmental -Acoustic  Data  Bank  Users  Manual  (U),“

2.0  DATA  SANK  ACCESS 


2.1  ADMINISTRATIVE  PROCEDURES 

The  LRAPP  Data  Bank  has  been  established  primarily  for  the  use  of  LRAPP  spon- 
sored Regional  Assessment,  model  evaluation,  and  environmental  acoustic  Inves- 
tigations. Funding  for  development  and  operation  of  the  Data  Sank  has  been 
provided  exclusively  by  LRAPP  In  support  of  Its  charter  missions.  As  addi- 
tional data  from  LRAPP  measurement  programs  and  other  non-LRAPP  sources  are 
added  to  the  Bank,  expansion  of  users  beyond  LRAPP  Investigators  and  contrac- 
tors is  expected. 

LRAPP  sonsored  Investigators  are  supplied,  upon  request,  with  required  user 
Identification  and  password.  At  the  time  of  Issuance,  an  estimated  level  cf 
usage  Is  established  which  should  not  be  exceeded  without  notification  to  the 
LRAPP  Data  Management  Coordinator. 

Authorization  for  access  to  the  Data  Bank  by  others  may  be  granted  by  the 
Director,  LRAPP,  upon  request,  setting  forth  appropriate  organizational 
sponsorship  and  need.  Occasional  usage  by  related  Navy  sponsored  programs 
will  be  on  a non-reimbursable  basis.  Extensive  use  requiring  special  data 
file  maintenance  or  high  hardware  time  charges  will  be  negotiated  on  an 
Individual  basis. 


2.2  FACILITIES  AND  ORGANIZATION 


The  Data  Bank  Is  presently  maintained  on  UNIVAC  1108  hardware  at  the  NSTL 
Computer  Center,  Bay  St.  Louis,  Mississippi.  Current  component  Data  Files 
of  available  Oata  Bases  are  listed  on  the  Data  Base  File  inventory  which  may 
be  displayed  at  the  beginning  of  system  use.  This  inventory  listing  will 
update  (if  necessary)  data  listings  in  the  Users  Manual.  The  required  pro- 
cedure to  call  the  inventory  and  to  stage  specific  tape  reels  for  access  is 
fully  explained  in  the  Oata  Bank  Users  Manual. 

Overall  responsibil 1 ty  for  user  service  rests  with  the  LRAPP  Oata  Management 
Coordinator,  A listing  of  functional  responsibilities  and  responsible  per- 
sonnel is  provided  in  Table  2-1.

to  obtain  tne  desired  output  from  the  NSTL  Computer  Center. 


2.3.2  Interactive  Terminal 


Interactive  access  to  the  Data  Bank  is  available  via  telephone  to  the  NSTl 
Computer  Center  using  standard  keyboard  printer  or  CRT  terminal.  Job  Control 
Language  ( JCL ) for  the  interactive  terminal  mode  is  described  fully  in  the 
Users  Manual. 


2.3.3  Batch  Processing 

Batch  processing  requires  communication  of  all  requests  to  the  computer  via 
card  images.  Batch  mode  access  is  only  available  at  the  NSTL  Computer  Center. 
Access  to  the  Data  Bank  by  means  of  patch  processing  is  limited  and  requires 
prior  arrangement  between  the  user  and  the  Computer  Center. 


&; 


3.0  DATA  MANAGEMENT  SYSTEM  CAPABILITIES 

The  data  management  software  modules  of  the  Data  3ank  are  designed  both  to 
efficiently  “compress"  data  for  storage  and  to  facilitate  isolation,  retrieval, 
and  display  of  data  subsets  by  users  with  a minimum  of  specialized  system 
knowledge.  Additionally,  the  capability  is  provided  for  users  to  interface 
their  own  special  purpose,  analytic,  or  data  transform  routines  to  operate  on 
the  Isolated  data  subsets. 

The  system  presently  consists  of  four  individual  software  modules.  The  func- 
tional relationships  of  the  four  modules  (CREATABASE , CREATE , EGO,  and  PRINTER- 
PLOTTER}  are  presented  In  Figure  3-1. 


3.i  DATA  ISOLATION  AND  RETRIEVAL 

All  communication  between  the  user  and  the  compressed  source  Data  Files  is 
through  the  CREATABASE  module.  English  language  Boolean  expressions  (queries’ 
using  “and,"  “or,"  “with,*  and  “from"  serve  to  isolate  data.  Interactive  r'wn- 
munications  with  the  user,  providing  information  as  to  total  number  of  da--, 
records  isolated  by  serial  Boolean  expressions,  guides  the  user  to  desireo 
data  records  and  provides  qualitative  information  on  data  concentratiors/Cis- 
tributions. 

Records  may  be  isolated  by  specification  of  limits  on  any  parameter  of  the 
record  (e.g.,  latitude,  longitude,  time,  depth,  temperature,  etc.).  Serial 
expressions  specifying  limits  on  two  or  more  parameters  may  be  ordered  in  any 
sequence.  During  the  isolation  process,  Individual  data  records  may  be 
retrieved  for  examinations  at  any  point. 

At  the  completion  of  the  query  process,  the  user  can  produce  a binary  subset 
file  from  the  compressed  source  data  files.  Tne  subset  file  is  structured  and 
sorted  according  to  user  specification  and  may  be  tabularly  printed  or  it  may 
be  used  as  input  to  display  nodules  or  analysis  routines. 

More  detailed  information  on  the  capabilities  of  the  CREA’abasE  module  together 
with  functional  ccoaands  and  user  instructions  are  presented  in  the  Users 
Manual . 


3.2  analysis 

Statistical  and  numerical  analyses  nay  be  performed  on  isolated  binary  subsst 
data  files  with  individual  user  supplied  routines  by  interfacing  these  rou- 
tines  through  the  CREATE  module  (see  Figure  3-1! . Routines  designed  to  com- 
pute derived  data  (e.g.,  sound  velocity  via  Wilson's  Equation  from  temperature, 
salinity,  and  depth}  or  to  transform  data  (e.g.,  feet  to  meters!  may  operate 
on  the  data  subset.  The  resultant  data  parameters  nay  replace  or  be  combined 
with  existing  parameters  in  the  binary  subset  file  for  display.  Specialized 
user  output  formats  beyond  the  scope  of  those  provided  by  the  Data  Bank  ore 
also  possible  via  the  CREATE  module.

3.3  DATA  OUTPUT  AMD  DISPLAY 

Tabular  output  of  retrieved  data  subsets  are  available  by  direct  instruction 
within  the  CREATABASE  module.  More  sophisticated  graphic  output  requires 
the  generation  of  the  binary  subset  file  and  use  of  one  of  the  two  graphic 
modules:  EGO  or  PRINTER-PLOTTER . 


3.3.1  EGO 


The  EGO  module  is  a general  purpose  graphics  package  designed  to  generate 
plot  tapes  for  CalComp  comoatible  plotters.  At  present,  arrangements  have 
1 not  been  made  to  generate  plots  at  the  MSTL  Computer  Center  and  detailed 

| Instructions  for  generation  of  plot  tapes  are  beyond  the  present  scope  of 

! the  Users  Manual.  Interested  users  may  obtain  required  information  upon 

l request  to  the  LRAPP  Data  Bcnk  Coordinator  (see  Table  1-1). 


In  addition  to  X-Y  functional  plots  (Figure  3-2),  EGO  can  produce  scatter 
diagrams  (Figure  3-3),  pages  of  text  (Figure  3-4),  and  map  projections. 

Map  projections  currently  available  include  Mercator  (Figure  3-5),  Lambert 
Conformal  (Figure  3-6),  and  Polar  Stereographic  (Figure  3-7).  Routines  are 
also  available  for  generation  of  coastline  on  standard  projections. 


3.3.2  PRINTF.  - PATTER 

Tne  PRINTER-PLOTTER  module  is  designed  primarily  for  on-line  operation.  It 
produces  rapid  graphical  representation  of  two  or  more  variables  directly 
from  the  interactive  terminal  or  line  printer. 

Plots  generated  by  PRINTER-PLOTTER  are  produced  using  printer  characters  as 
the  plotting  medium.  Piet  size,  and  vertical  and  horizontal  scaling  are 
selected  by  the  user.  A detailed  explanation  of  the  control  language  neces 
sary  to  execute  the  PRINTER-PLOTTER  module  is  provided  in  the  Users  Manual. 
Figure  3-8  provides  an  example  of  the  PRINTER-PLOTTER  module  output.
